Detailed explanation of the submitted project or idea (in English or both English and your language)
We create flavors from waste - we see it as a resource, the key delicious ingredient lost in our food system. We reinvent the circular food system where nothing is wasted and every part of the animal or plant plays its part and the result is a beautiful delicious food.
When you buy frozen prawns their shells are often missing – have you ever wondered what happens to them?
Well, usually they go straight to the landfill, sharing the same route as almost 50% of seafood catch, which includes prawn shells, fish carcasses and heads. And these parts hold the most flavour and nutrition, used by chefs at the restaurant kitchens to create delicious meals!
We set our mission to rescue these flavours and nutrition and bring them to your table – starting with tasty prawn oil, made from discarded prawn shells! -

We work with seafood industry outcasts not only to avoid waste but to make the most of limited resources, to discover their full potential. We see design and innovation as integral parts of the entire value chain.
Around us, the food system is broken, with over-processed food making us sick as we are deprived of much-needed nutrition and the best nutrition elements are wasted during food processing.
Fusing great natural flavour with sustainable principles - Seaweedery aims to embody the way a chef works in the kitchen, finding creative ways to use up all the ingredients. Food is a powerful argument for change from both personal and economic points of view - we eat and buy food daily.
